Pavel Astakhov, BC Khimki General Manager:

— This year, in the qualifying round all the contenders are worthy and there will be no easy games. We were also interested in which group the winner of the qualification would have got. As a result, it will play in Group D. This group is very tough, I would have called it the "group of death": you can not lose points, starting from the first match. As for our opponent in the first round, the Belgian team Telenet Oostende, in my opinion, BC Khimki has got a good choice. We will strive for victory in qualifying round and try to get to the group stage of the tournament.
